I can't wait until we are in our permanent home and I can get back to the weekly lists! Right now there just isn't anything for me to post having an empty house and nothing really to do.

It will be exciting to plan and organise your new home. In the meantime just enjoy the time you have left on the island.

I bought a planner for the new academic year! Oh, how I love a new planner. I just got hold of the high school's 2021-2022 calendar and put in all the key dates for us.

I spent a good hour last night weeding the garden. I still have more to do but will get to it later in the week.

I do enjoy getting out in the garden and just letting the mind wander
